4d9r 'Bolter 4 Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 112 gone	I'll be starting to restore a 1949 3/4 ton 4-speed updated with a "59 235. Can you give me some ideas to make this truck more street friendly. I want to keep it as near stock as possible but also need to drive it on the freeway occasionaly for my business. I looked at Patrick's gears but , as you know, he has nothing for the 3/4 ton. -Thanks --------------------------------------------------
